it is a valid question in the sense that discussing things with someone requires to know their understanding of the product.
Tesla’s has a long way to go with production. Their interior design and material choices can also be improved upon.
I want real leather and a leather dash and leather door panels. Aluminum switches/dials. Loaded with carbon fiber but I don’t think I’d pay for them in this car though.
Most entry level luxury cars have the same soft touch plastic dash. Hard plastic lower doors. But comparing the interior to a sports car the Tesla is pretty decent at the price point.
This thread was about swapping from a sports car. So interior being average is okay. The interior and storage is the last thing I look at in a sports car.
With my driving style.
Power/accelerations is good
Brakes fade even on fast canyons.
A lot of Weight transfer in turns but exit grip is good.
Capable car. But lacks wheel and chassis feed back. A good all in one solution if one can only have 1 car.
Good feedback. I think the biggest gripe I had with my M3P was that there just wasn't enough differentiation from the lower trims. I understand Tesla has limited ability to right now to create lot of options, colors, etc. but at the $58k price point I think there should be more than just a wheel/tire upgrade and bigger brakes and rotors. From a performance perspective you only get a faster 0-60mph time and the car may actually be slower than the LR AWD after 60mph due to the heavier wheels.
There really should be LR RWD Performance model. Save the weigh of the front motor, put some sporty front seats with proper bolstering, 19" wheels with 275 tires, track mode, sport mode, add a HUD, relax the nannies, ditch the glass roof and add a few cool colors. Price it at $50k.
